So... what is chainstitch embroidery?
I want you to picture an old letterman's jacket with it's big, puffy letter patch. That was done by using a chainstitch machine. Now try to picture a perfectly imperfect script name on a vintage bowling shirt... or an auto repair shop uniform... FFA jackets... elaborate country western outfits complete with stitches and rhinestones. Can you see it?
These were all done using chainstitch machines. Completely freehand! Chainstitch is an artform that originated well over a century ago (!) that we are now seeing pop up more and more.
All stitches are laid completely freehand by turning a crank under the machine. This handle steers the needle on top of the table. It's all so amazingly quirky and one-of-a-kind. Chainstitching is basically painting, or drawing, but with thread. In a world of computerized and digitized everything, chainstitch embroidery produces something truly unique. You are only limited to your imagination.
